The "Time Scope", is a Sci-Fi TV Set that can be tuned to any space and time coordinate and observe events, without sound, as they took place in the past. It has control buttons and dials for 'Power', 'Time', 'Space', 'Zoom', 'Speed', 'Scan' and 'Track'. It is used, among other things, by an American Senator to find out if his party's presidential nominee, a retired general is, in fact, a power-mad maniac with dictatorial ambitions. He wants to save his country from a rogue president who could cause immense harm to both the USA and to the rest of the world. This is the smallest of their problems, The bigger one spans the entire galaxy.Based on a novella by the same author: "Time Scope" it was rated highly by one Amazon reader: "What an intriguing concept A time scope capable of looking into the past is a new twist on the time travel idea, and one that has plenty of possibilities. Once I started reading this, only duty could stop me. Like everyone, I have a few of those to slow me down, but the story stayed with me even when I wasn't reading. The only thing that held me back from a 5 star rating was that I feel like there's more story to tell, more stories within the story, and I'd love to read an extended version. Every character in the story had elements that could be further explored." - So I did what she has asked for. The result is this novel.
